Big Run Golf Club

This is a well designed course with lots of elevation changes, that present lots of different shots that usually in this area.

It is not designed for walkers, so if you decide to hoof it, be prepared. Lots of hills to climb and climb back down, lastly being the 18th.

Haven't played course in a decade. Only difference now are more dead, dying and potentially hazardous tall oak trees that should be cut down. Some dead trees are right over tee boxes like hole tens back tee box. Dead branches were on the tee box. The greens were slow and spongy probably due to previous nights rain, pretty much the first significant rainfall this year, but my guess is that they could never be hard and fast without some work.. Balls seemed to disappear in the rough even though it wasn't tall grass. And when you did find your ball it most likely wasn't yours, because this course like many courses have scrambles on the weekend which slows everybody down to a 5+ hour round by golfers who are more interested in drinking than golfing. This course layout is great, with hills, trees, and distance being about 7000 yards from the tips. If it wasn't for the Golf Now "hot deal" we wouldn't have played it. Only reason I'm recommending this course is due to the layout but that's it.Too bad.

Fairways were terrible… Nothing but the dandelions and weeds… Landscape crew was more concerned about getting rakes in the sand traps then grooming the course… Doubt if I’ll play there again

My neighbor recommended this as a great place to play. This course is long, hilly and difficult. If you are not used to playing on hilly courses. This course will be very difficult. If you don't have pinpoint accuracy on your drives you will lose your balls. This was a very long and hot day for us. If you have walking issues? We walked 5.5 miles with carts over 18 holes, mostly looking for our balls in the rough.

My advice, if you want the mountain experience, Play 9 holes at this course. You will get the taste of playing on a hilly course, see the incredible hole locations and not leave exhausted.

Roughs were too long. Other than that course was nice I enjoyed the layout

worth 80 minutes driving to play. And will play again for a good deal with friends.

This course used to be one of the best kept secrets in all of the Midwest. Over the years neglect has caused this course to take a beating. For some reason they have refused to every add a qualify practice facility and take care of this once great golf course. The best thing that could happen if for them to sell it or have a management company such as Kemper take it over. Hopefully one day we will see that happen, but until then spend your time and money elsewhere.

Well let’s start with the fairways hard to define which is which .. if you find your ball is in the ruff good luck grass is to deep could have spend up to five minutes per per person looking for your ball .. lastly the greens are good if you could avoid all the junk on them over I would think twice before playing this old course in poor condition.. very disappointing!!!!!!!

This course is HOGWASH. Everything was long, including greens, tee boxes and fairways. Would have been fun if they can get a decent grounds crew out there.
